Makeup Looks for Ganesh Chaturthi That Are Oh-So-Glam

#1 Metallic OTT

Metallic makeup is totally on-trend these days, and you create one for your Ganesh Chaturthi celebration if you want to go retro!

To apply metallic makeup smoothly, you need an even base. Begin by applying a primer, then apply foundation and concealer flawlessly.
Choose colors that complement your skin tone. When choosing metallic makeup hues, here is a simple rule to follow: Darker hues look best on lighter complexions, and lighter hues are best suited for darker skin tones.
Use metallic eye shadow to accentuate bronze, gold, and silver shades on your eyes.
Paint your lips with metallic lipstick to add some shimmer.

#2 The Au-Naturale Look

If you’re a woman who’s not a fan of makeup or likes to keep things simple, the natural makeup look is perfect for you. Recreate this look by following these steps:

The base is the most important aspect of a natural makeup look. The right concealer, foundation, and primer are essential. Get a flawlessly even base by applying these products with a damp beauty blender.
Add mascara to your lashes and apply kajal to your eyes. If you want to highlight your eyelids, you can use a light brown eyeshadow.
Apply a light layer of nude blush to the apple of your cheeks. Make sure to blend it upwards for a snatched look.
Make your lips appear naturally supple with nude lipstick or lip gloss.

#3 Toned-down Smokey Eyes

You can always trust smokey eye makeup to amp up your Ganesh Chaturthi look—it's a trend that never truly goes out of style. But if you're looking for a subtle smokey eye makeup look, we suggest easing up on the intensity.

Once your eyelids are prepped with primer, apply a little neutral brown or deep gray eyeshadow. Blend it in circular motions across your lids.
Using another brush, dab the eyeshadow on your outer corners and extend it into your crease. Get blending!
Use an intense kajal pencil to line your eyes next. Blend the eye pencil lines into your eyeshadow using a smudging brush—ensuring the lines look seamless and aren't too sharp. Apply the same technique to your lower lash line as well!
Make your eyelashes look full by applying two coats of mascara.
If you want to keep the attention on your eyes, choose a light lipstick color. You can, however, amp up the drama with bold lipstick.

#4 Rule with Red

The power of red lipstick cannot be denied. Any woman can recreate this makeup look; all she has to do is find the right shade of red and her favorite lipstick formula.

Concealing any obvious redness or pimples before applying red lipstick is important. Those flaws will only be accentuated by a rich, red lip.
The lippie is the focal point of this look, so keep the rest of your face neutral with nude eyeshadow and brown eyeliner.
Line your lips with a red that matches your lipstick exactly. If you can't find the exact shade, choose a lip liner that matches your natural lip color.
Finally, apply the lipstick with precision. You can use an angled brush for the same if you want.
With a little concealer, line just outside your lip line. Besides helping with bleeding, this will also make your red lip color pop!

#5 Beaming Glow

Glow is an integral part of any Indian festival! Add some glow to your makeup look for Ganesh Chaturthi.

Apply some shiny, ethereal highlighter after you do your face makeup. Highlighting your high points will make your features stand out. Your makeup will also look brighter and more defined.
Use a stick highlighter on bare skin if you plan to skip foundation. You won't even need to use a base product to achieve the sheen!
Mix some liquid highlighter with your foundation if you want to glow from within. The result will be a dewy base with a subtle glow.
